Valve Anti Cheat (VAC 2)  by Scott H at 06:00

PC
According to a news post on steampowered the release of VAC 2 isnt too far away.

The message from valve is:-

Next week we'll begin beta testing the new Valve Anti-Cheat system. For people playing multiplayer games, there will not be any visible difference while we're conducting the beta, but we will be logging cheating violations into our database to make sure it's ready for general release. This will be the last public notice before the system is released and active for everyone.

If you have any cheats for multiplayer games installed on your computer, now would be a good time to uninstall and stop using them. When a cheat infraction is detected, the offender will be permanently banned from playing on secure servers.

It looks like were in for a few days of cheat free CS Source in the next week or so.

Well i reckon it will clear quite a lot of the cheats out,there are not the same amount of cheats on source as 1.6 due to it being d3d and not open gl most cheats were based on open gl d3d is much harder for the haxors to get the cheats to work correctly. Ive already seen a drop in the suspect players on servers,reckon they are holding off untill vac2 is out and seeing what gets detected before they come back on.
Have faith the scum will be vanquished!
